“It may not get better at #sxswfilm than My Beautiful Broken Brain. Really breathtaking doc.” 

Tweeted Tom Dowler on March 12th who saw this latest doc at SXSW16. The documentary film “My Beautiful Broken Brain” details the experience of Dutch-French filmmaker Lotje Sodderland, after she suffered a hemorrhagic stroke and embarks on a journey of rehabilitation and recovery. 

A stroke stripped her of the skills she needs to function. This documentary captures the strange new world she inhabits, teeming with color and sound. 

The film was co-directed by Sophie Robinson and Sodderland and exec produced by David Lynch and Michael Houldey. “My Beautiful Broken Brain” premiered on March 13th at the 2016 SXSW Film Festival. 

Film to debut globally on NETFLIX March 18.
